Panasonic System Communications Company of North America, Division of Panasonic Corporation of North America, released KV-S8127 and KV-S8147 high-volume production scanners.
These devices are suitable for government, banking, service bureaus and any high-volume scanning application.
Supporting up to 100,000-sheet-daily duty cycles, KV-S8127 offers speed of up to 120 ppm/240 ipm. Similarly, KV-S8147 offers 140 ppm/280 ipm speed.
Available through Panasonic authorized resellers, KV-S8127 is priced at $14,995 and KV-S8147 is for $16,500.
Both new scanners include durable, long-life rollers supporting up to 600,000 scans between replacements and mixed batch scanning of documents of various thicknesses ranging from paper-thin to cardboard.
These devices also feature LSI hardware image processing to eliminate the typical speed penalty when switching from 200dpi to 300dpi scanning and a unique Paper Exit Direction Selector which uses separate paths for scanning normal documents and extra-thick .
Other unique features of the KV-S8100 series include specially designed sensors that identify the host computer, operating system, scanning application, measuring method, paper type and image density, and process this information through an algorithm that determines the best balance between speed and quality for each job.
Advanced image processing functions shared by the two models include: Automatic Brightness Adjustment, Automatic Image Emphasis, Dynamic Threshold, White Level Readings Taken Directly From Paper, Automatic Separation, Noise Reduction, Auto Preview, Auto Rescan, Dither, Error Diffusion and Multi-color Dropout.
